Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 10, 1909.-

To all-whom it may concern:

Be it known thatI, JOHN C. TURNER, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of h/lontgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toys, of which My invention relates to an improvement in a locomotive toy illustrated as an engine,

in which the boiler, cab, and fire box are constructed from a single blank of sheet metal. I

The object of my invention is to provide an engine locomotive toy wherein the boiler, cab side walls, firebo'x side walls and boiler support are struck up from a single sheet of metal and bent into shape.

The features of my invention are more fully set forth in the description of the accompanying drawing forming a part of thisspecification, in which:

Figure 1, is ,a side elevation of my locomotive engine toy. Fig. 2, is a section on line m a: Fig. 1. Fig. 3, is a rear elevation of the cab and the box. Fig. 4:, is a plan view of the main blank from which the boiler, ca'b, fire box and forward boiler support are formed. Fig. 5, is a plan view of the fender and cylinder blank.

In toys of this class it is desirable to form the same of as few parts as possible in order to cheapen their construction, and at the same time rendering them more durable. In Fig.4, it will be seen that the greater portion of the toy is made from. a single blank.

1 represents the boiler, 2 re resents the cab side .walls, 3 the fire box Sl( e walls and base portion of the cab, 4 the forward support for the boiler; 5 represents the fender, and 6 the-cylinders.

In the blank shown in Fig. 4, 7, 8 represent slits formed in the blank, separating the cab from the boiler proper, which boiler proper is formed at its forward end cylindrical in cross section, and the ends 9 are brought together overlapped and securely fastened by a r vet passing through the ori fices 10.

, 11, 12 represent slits formed in' the sheet metal, and 13 represents projections, which projections are bent downwardly and outwardly as illustrated'in- Fig. 2, representin the support for the boiler at its forward en '14: represents slits formed in. the blank,

separating the' forward portionof the boiler from that portion representing the side I walls of the fire box. The portions 16 of the blank overlapping each other when the boiler cylinder is formed and secured together by a rivet passing through the orifices 17, which orifices aline with each other when the boiler proper is formed into shape.

18, 19 and 20 represent oblong orifices through which the axles of the ground wheels and inertia wheel project. -The por .tions 3 forming the fire box assume a vertical position as shown in dotted line of Fig.

27 and 28 represent slots through which the ears of the base and forward wall of the engine cab project and are bent over to secure the same in position. The cab portion of the blank is provided with the right angledbends 29 (see Fig. 3) representin the seats within the cab on each side thereo The fender and cylinders are preferably struck up from a blank as illustrated in Fig. 5, in which 30 represents the fender proper bent upon the -medial line into V shaped form with the portion 31 ,ass'umin a horizontal position, to which the outward bends of the support l are secured, as illustrated in Fig.2. 1

'32 represents projections extending from the blank, eachbent cylindrical to form an. engine cylinder 6. 1

Having described my invention, I clai 1. A locomotive engine toy, having a" boiler, forward boiler support, fire-box side walls and cab side walls formed fr'oni ivsingle piece of metal, substantially asdescribed.

2. A blank for making a locomotive en gine toy, having its forward portion slitted and provided with a projection on each drically, withthe ends overlapping. and secured together and the sides of the blank being formed to be bent to occupy a vertical position and constitute the side walls of the fire-box and cab.

3. A blank for making a locomotive en gine toy, having its forward portion slitted and provided with n projectionon each side,

adapted to form boiler supports, the por- ,to form the boiler when bent oylindrically with the ends overlapping and secured together, and the sides ot the blank being Enters this disclaimer- Disclaimer in Letters Patent No. 930,633.

Tforined to be bent to occupy a vertical position and constitute the side Walls of the firebox and cab.
